    I am trying to load demand job from specific custom PDS location (example Override JCLID = 254), but when I tried to DEMAND job from JCLID=254 in command line, it shows error saying "SP07-01 JCLID -- INVALID", hence I tried to update the USE-OVLD-LIB flag to Y, so modified jcl can be loaded automatically from override pds, but I could update this flay from DB.1 panel, but i don't find any specific command to be update the USE-OVLD-LIB flag.. 

    All these activities I am trying from Automation using Batch interface CA7 commands. anyone can help to identify the correct command to update USE-OVLD-LIB or DEMAND job from specific override JCL location?

    Thanks..

    agp.

    You can use this in a batch process to flip the override flag

    JOB                      
    UPD,DIANEAAA,JOVRDLIB=Y

    Then issue the DEMAND command after.
